Your doctor may prescribe a course of antibiotics. a drug that is used to kill bacteria and cure infections (anti- + biotic (19-21 centuries) (from bioticus, from , from bios )). Chemical substance that in dilute solutions can inhibit the growth of microorganisms or destroy them with little or no harm to the infected host. Early antibiotics were natural microbial products, but chemists have modified the structures of many to produce semisynthetic and even wholly synthetic ones. Since the discovery of penicillin (1928), antibiotics have revolutionized the treatment of bacterial, fungal, and some other diseases. They are produced by many actinomycetes (e.g., streptomycin, tetracycline) and other bacteria (e.g., polypeptides such as bacitracin) and by fungi (e.g., penicillin). Antibiotics may be broad-spectrum (active against a wide range of pathogens) or specific (active against one, or one class). Drawbacks include activity against beneficial microorganisms, often causing diarrhea; allergies; and development of drug-resistant strains of the targeted microorganisms; A chemical agent that is produced by one organism that is harmful to another organism; a group of drugs that kill bacteria and other organisms that cause disease; A class of natural and synthetic compounds that inhibit the growth of or kill other microorganisms (See Antibiotic resistance, Bacteriocide, Bacteriostat ); A substance that can destroy or inhibit the growth of other microorganisms; of or relating to antibiotic drugs; Drugs used to kill organisms that cause disease Antibiotics may be made by living organisms or they may be created in the lab Since some cancer treatments can reduce the body's ability to fight off infection, antibiotics may be used to treat or prevent these infections; A class of natural and synthetic compounds that inhibits the growth of, or kills, other microorganisms; A drug that kills or inhibits the growth of bacteria; A drug that weakens or destroys bacteria; used to treat various types of bacterial infections; Organic substance produced by one species of organism that in low concentrations will kill or inhibit growth of certain other organisms; Kills or inhibits the growth of bacteria and other microorganisms; any of various substances that are effective in inhibiting or destroying bacteria; A substance that fights bacteria; a substance that can inhibit or destroy susceptible microorganisms, including disease-producing bacteria and fungi In the Galloway by Choice program antibiotics are used carefully and sparingly Antibiotics are used only when necessary, only for specific disease control, only as directed, and never in the finishing period; {s} kills bacteria, working against infectious diseases; A chemical that kills or inhibits the growth of micro-organisms and is used in treating disease; Any of various substances, such as penicillin that are used to inhibit or destroy the growth of microorganisms in the prevention and/or treatment of disease; drug used to kill bacteria; Chemical sometimes synthesized by other organisms, sometimes manufactured, that is a deterrent to other organisms; A drug that kills or inhibits the growth of bacteria (Read about "Antibiotics"); drug that kills or reduces the growth of bacteria; Chemical substance formed as a metabolic by-product in bacteria or fungi and used to treat bacterial infections Antibiotics can be produced naturally, using microorganisms, or synthetically; An antibiotic is a substance, produced by or derived from a microorganism (especially mold), that destroys or inhibits the growth of other microorganisms Antibiotics are used to treat infections caused by organisms that are sensitive to them, usually bacteria or fungi; Substance used to inhibit the growth of micro-organisms, including bacteria and fungi (10); {i} type of medication used to treat infectious diseases; A natural of synthetic substance that inhibits growth of or destroys microorganisms, typically bacteria; a chemical substance derivable from a mold or bacterium that kills microorganisms and cures infections; "when antibiotics were first discovered they were called wonder drugs"; Drug that kills bacteria and other germs; Ab; bacteriolytic
